    New Improved Design

    2016/171

  • Current Conducting Electrode Arms and Guide Columns

    2

    Conventional, old design

    Welding seams in corners – Stress !

    More welding = more potential leaks

    Temperature peaks

    Electrical current peaks

    BKS – DESIGN 2016 Soft & rounded corners

    Two (2) instead of six (6) welding seams

    No welding seams in corners

    Better distribution of mechanical, electrical & thermal load

    copper concentration in main current areas

    Design Change

    4

    No welded corners !

    Reduction of mechanical, electrical and thermal load

    Better & more efficient water cooling where needed

    Cable terminals in pure, cooled copper

    Copper thickness (skin effect) according to customer

    feed back and result of our calculations

    Steel thickness (16mm) combined with copper surface

    is designed for optimum cooling and lowest resistance

    Mechanical Advantage

    5

    Optimal pitch circle diameter with reduced heat load on the sidewall resulting in

    considerable longer panel life along with better refractory life.

    Best electrical conductivity with reduced electrical losses (copper) and larger

    contact area to the electrode = Energy savings ( kwh/t ! )

    Lower Reactance, therefore up to 15% higher energy input, resulting in higher

    productivity and decreased energy consumption.

    No shorting, arcing or insulation problems!

    Reduced capital investment for spares.

    ROI in less than a year !

    Balanced energy input + minimal & easy maintenance = REDUCED COST!
